Chapter 510: Revealing the Reason (Seeking Subscription)
The dog-headed tribe has many more members than the tauren tribe, so as soon as Zhao Hai saw these dog-headed individuals, he felt overwhelmed by the sheer number of them.
After Fang finished the introductions, Wells and Zhao Hai were welcomed into the Great Tent. Today, Zhao Hai did not bring Laura and the others, instead letting them stay in the space. To outsiders, it still appeared as if Laura and the others were within the alien creature.
Upon entering the dog-headed tribe's Golden Great Tent, the members of the tribe looked at Zhao Hai with curiosity. They all knew that the tauren tribe had gained a foreign prince consort, who was also a major grain merchant with abundant food supplies. The Herculean Bull Tribe's ability to reclaim the throne was inextricably linked to this foreign prince consort.
Because of this, the dog-headed tribe had no resentment toward Zhao Hai. In fact, no orc would harbor ill feelings toward a major grain merchant from the human race. They had some reservations about ordinary human merchants, but Zhao Hai, being the foreign prince consort of the tauren tribe, was seen as half-orc, greatly increasing their goodwill towards him.
Buzel looked at Wells and smiled slightly, saying, "Wells, you rascal, you look pretty good today. It seems the Herculean Bull Tribe has really bounced back."
Wells held Buzel in high regard and laughed as he replied, "Uncle Buzel, you can tell! This winter has indeed been great for us. Usually, we have to ration our food in winter, but this year, we have more than enough, so naturally, we look healthy."
Seeing Wells' demeanor, Buzel laughed heartily, "Good! With Little Hai supporting you, your life is indeed quite pleasant. But remember, now that you're doing well, don't forget your uncle."
Wells chuckled, "Of course not! The moment Little Hai arrived on the prairie, I brought him right to you, Uncle. Just let me know what you need, and I promise I’ll have him give you the best price."
Buzel looked at Zhao Hai with a slight smile, "Little Hai, it’s great that you’re here. We, the dog-headed tribe, are in need right now. We really lack food, as you can see."
Zhao Hai smiled slightly, "Uncle Buzel, don’t worry. I brought plenty of food this time. Just let me know how much you need. In fact, I brought you some breadfruit. I wonder if you will like it." Saying this, he took out a piece of breadfruit and placed it on the ground.
Buzel and the others had never seen breadfruit before; even Wells had never encountered it. Currently, Wells’ food reserves were still plentiful, so Zhao Hai didn’t leave them any grain this time.
Buzel looked at Zhao Hai in confusion, "Little Hai, what is this?"
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Uncle Buzel, this is a breadfruit. It’s quite remarkable. It may not look big, but once you crack open its hard shell, the flesh inside expands. One of these is enough for a member of the Herculean Bull Tribe to have a meal."
Since members of the Herculean Bull Tribe could eat more than the dog-headed tribe, Zhao Hai made that remark. Buzel looked at the fruit, "Is it really that amazing?"
Zhao Hai smiled lightly, took the breadfruit, gently tapped it on the table, and then cracked it open. The flesh indeed expanded, resembling a large loaf of bread. Judging by its size, it would certainly be enough for a tauren to have a hearty meal.
Placing the breadfruit on the table, Zhao Hai said to Buzel, "Uncle Buzel, you can eat this breadfruit as it is or bake it before eating. What do you think?"
Buzel’s eyes sparkled as he looked at Zhao Hai, "Little Hai, can we try it?"
Zhao Hai chuckled, "Of course! Uncle, feel free to taste it." He then took out several unopened breadfruits and had his servants deliver them to Buzel and the others.
After tasting the breadfruit, Buzel and the others nodded. It was indeed quite good, flavorful, and very convenient—definitely a good product.
Buzel set down the breadfruit and said to Zhao Hai, "Little Hai, I want this. How much do you have? Our dog-headed tribe is really lacking food right now; I want as much as you can provide."
